Today's climate for engineering and design is always changing so continuing education is critical for success in a technology driven field such as mechanical engineering.
Events like this are wonderful. We come here to learn new technologies and regulations, and learn innovative things people have done at different companies to be green and save energy. It's beneficial to us and we'll carry a lot of these ideas and continuing education back to WR Systems.
